Advancing Health Literacy Project Listening Sessions
In partnership with the City of Milwaukee Office of African American Affairs, we are facilitating a series of listening sessions to create a community health tool kit. We also want to discover how ethnic minority residents, including those who were affected by COVID-19, respond to messages and resources. We're seeking volunteers who are willing to share their personal experiences at our next session on Monday, June 12. Volunteers will be paid a $100 stipend for attending.
